Episode #595: From the Oort Cloud
First Broadcast: 1/23/12
Do people who grew up with the so-called "War on Terror" perpetually in the background of their lives feel just as removed from the Gulf War and the Vietnam War as people who grew up the 1970's feel about the Vietnam War and World War II? Perhaps, especially since the American death tolls of its most recent wars are quite less than they were in wars of the more distant past. However, that certainly hasn't prevented many younger people from becoming very politically active, as the #Occupy movements and the SOPA/PIPA protests have shown. More power to them. Maybe I should buy some Girl Scout cookies to take my mind off it all...
So, what is Free New York anyway? The simple answer is that it's a
this neat little
public access TV show on
Manhattan Neighborhood Network which I co-produce with the
tremendous help of my camerawoman/editor/everything else,
Kim. The complicated answer
is that it's a project of mine to broadcast opinions and events which
don't always appear within "the mainstream media" (like The New York Times,
the major networks, local radio, etc.), and so far I think it's been working.
If you think I'm doing a good job--or not--and you feel
like sending me snail mail, the address is:
Free New York
P.O. Box 20945
Tompkins Square Station
New York, NY 10009
You can also email me at fny@freenewyork.net, which should get to me a lot faster than the snail mail.
Check back later. I'm sure something will turn up.

Read all about my letter, which was published in the New York Press on July 9, 1997.
Here you can view an op-ed I sent to the New York Times, which they never printed. Maybe I'll add an even larger essay in the future.
